BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an assembling type block toy which is
capable of making various shapes by assembling a plurality of unit blocks, and in
particular to an assembling type block toy in which each unit block is assembled in
such a manner that matching sides each having a convex-concave structure and a
magnet are matched.
2. Description of the Background Art
Generally, a conventional assembling type block toy set is formed of
cubic unit blocks each having a corresponding matching surface with a force fit
convex-concave structure in a male and female structure corresponding to
opposite both sides.
Therefore, the unit blocks are matched with their matching sides and are
pressurized in an engaging direction, so that a matching side concave-convex
structure of one side unit block is force-fit to a matching side concave-convex structure of another unit block. Therefore, a plurality of unit blocks are sequentially
assembled in the above manner for thereby forming a certain shape like a robot,
etc.
However, in the conventional assembling type block toy set, since the
matching side convex-concave structure of each unit block is designed to be force-
fit by a certain pressurizing force so that the unit blocks are assembled and then
are not easily disassembled, a large pressurizing force is required for assembling
the unit blocks. Therefore, in the conventional art, it is not easy to assemble and
disassemble. Therefore, it is very difficult for children or baby who have a small
grasping force to assemble and disassemble the unit blocks, so that it is
impossible to .make a certain shape using the unit blocks.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide an
assembling type block toy which overcomes the problems encountered in the
conventional art.
It is another object of the present invention to provide an assembling type
block toy which is capable of easily assembling and disassembling unit blocks in
such a manner that each unit block is matched and engaged based on a convex- concave structure of a simple insertion structure and a magnetic force of a magnet,
and it is possible to make various shapes by providing a block wheel which may
express a rotating member like a wheel except for a simple polygonal unit block
and a block link which may express a joint or link.
To achieve the above objects, there is provided an assembling type block
toy which includes a plurality of unit blocks which each have a concave-convex
structure corresponding to each other and a matching side with a magnet of an
opposite polarity and which is assembled and disassembled based on the
concave-convex structure and a magnetic force of an opposite polarity magnet in
such a manner that the corresponding matching sides are matched one another, a
plurality of block links which are implemented in such a manner that two link
blocks having the matching sides with a concave-convex structure and magnet
corresponding to each matching side of the unit block at a front end are relatively
rotatable to each other, and a block wheel which includes an engaging member
having a matching side with a concave-convex structure and magnet
corresponding to the matching side of each block in one side, and a rotating
member which is engaged to a surrounding portion of the engaging member for
thereby being rotatable along a circumference of the engaging member.
At this time, in a state that each magnet is mounted in a mounting groove formed in each matching side, the magnet is force-fit in the mounting groove by a
cap.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the unit block is
hexahedron, and each unit block includes a matching side corresponding to at
least two sides opposite to each other.
In addition, the horizontal and vertical sizes and height of each unit block
have a fixed number of magnification, and the unit blocks are formed of the unit
blocks of a plurality of groups in which at least one of the horizontal and vertical
sizes and height is increased at a fixed number magnification by the unit of group.
